It turns out the old stacking algorithm identified the two alignments as being incompatible for the wrong reasons. That's why a message was printed with the older kernel. I do find it a bit strange that you pass relative offsets to the stacking function and rely on the userland utilities to do the right thing, though. Doesn't that mean that existing misaligned volumes will go undetected? Or do you perform a check when you prepare the table before feeding it to the kernel? >> Note that this was run using an old EL5 LVM toolkit because I'm not >> interested in having userland compensate for any misalignment.
